DELTA ACADEMY OF APPLIED LEARNING, located in Delta, Colorado, serves as an alternative educational environment designed to support students who may benefit from a non-traditional approach to learning. The school is part of the Delta County School District and focuses on providing a personalized academic experience, often catering to students who need flexibility, smaller class sizes, or a more hands-on, project-based curriculum to succeed. By offering a different atmosphere than a large comprehensive high school, the academy aims to keep students engaged, help them recover credits, and provide the social-emotional support necessary to reach graduation.

The academy emphasizes "applied learning," which suggests that the curriculum is designed to bridge the gap between abstract academic concepts and real-world skills. Through smaller settings and often more individualized attention from faculty, the school strives to build confidence in students who may have struggled in conventional academic settings. By focusing on both core academic requirements and practical application, Delta Academy plays a vital role in the community by ensuring that all students, regardless of their specific learning style or personal circumstances, have a viable pathway to earning their high school diploma and preparing for post-secondary success.
